Crystal Fairy is now streaming a brand new track off of their upcoming self-titled album called, “Chiseler.”

Now, in case you have not heard, Crystal Fairy is a supergroup with musicians from The Melvins (Buzz & Dale), At The Drive-In (Omar Rodríguez-López), and Le Butcherettes (Teri Gender Bender). The band has been slowly releasing new music leading up to the anticipated release of the full album. On the topic of the new song, Teri Gender Bender said:

It was so much fun to write this song with Buzz, Omar and Dale. It literally just came out like a flying saucer while we were working the parts out for Chiseler. That same day we recorded everything. It was so impressive to see how well we all experiment with one another. While writing the lyrics for this one, I completely let my hand do the story telling… the unconscious is sometimes wiser than our premeditated thoughts.

Last we heard from Philly ‘slop n’ rollers’ The Barren Marys was back in late 2015 when they released their nine track, self titled EP. Since that was over a year ago and we get itchy without some of that distinctive Delaware Valley punk sound, we harassed the terrific trio until they finally broke down and agreed to let us stream their brand new split EP Political Party, exclusively for DS readers! The split, which released today via DIY label Hostile City Records also features fellow Philadelphians Teenage Bigfoot, who we would classify as garage pop if they didn’t throw us a curveball with a fantastic final track which sounds like it could’ve come from a Pat the Bunny album. Now, we just call them talented!

A little birdie told us that The Barren Marys will be hitting the road once the thaw begins so keep an eye on their Facebook page for more details on that. Until then, enjoy five, spankin’ new songs below!
